Fear
Directed by James Foley
Nicole Walker always dreamed of being swept away by someone special — someone strong, sexy and sensitive who would care for her more than anything else in the world. David is all that and more: a modern-day knight who charms and seduces her, body and soul. But her perfect boyfriend is not all he seems to be. His sweet facade masks a savage, dark side that will soon transform Nicole's dream into a nightmare. From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →There should be a law that every 25 years there's a new remake of The Blob but it's a metaphor for whatever our current Big Fear™ is. Every movie should become a time capsule for the period in which it is made so that when placed side by side they can act as a cultural fear archeological timeline.
